ALWAYS BE YOU!
The biggest advice we can give you is to always be yourself. Do not fake it and do not pretend to be something that you are not just because you think it will get you more money. We live in a diverse world and you are what we need, specifically unique you. Your audience is there but it is the audience only a genuine you will receive so always be honest and true to who you are. Be creative and be wonderful as you are. Artists are often pressured to work or become something they are not by their managers or funders. Crowdfunding will allow you to stay who you are, do not forget that. Follow your passion and your heart, follow your inspiration. There are people out there who are excited to learn about you and hear what you are creating.
Start with establishing your objectives. What is it that you want to achieve and how much money do you need for it? Have a goal in mind and be realistic. Dream big but be realistic. With crowdfunding, a couple of smaller goals is better to have than one large one. Be as personal as possible and show us who you are. Give us a sample of your music. Let us hear you and see you. Consider backer rewards such as signed copies of your album and remember to thank your donors. Do not forget that your job is not done once you publish a campaign, you need to promote it wherever and whenever you can so people can know about it. Give us news and updates and think about videos to show us.
